Energy Ball Rotating

Since the early days of this ezine, one advantage for Staying Awake (or for staying awake) has been to remind us of the sun. You know, that frequently unimagined yellow energy ball rotating over our heads without which there would be no chlorophyll nor photosynthesis to provide life for species on Earth?

Here’s a personal story that stimulated my interest for Sun’s bond with Earth. In November, 2003, I was listening to Mitch Battros of EarthChangesMedia interview Dr. James Hildner, who then held the office for authorizing press releases from NASA. During the interview, a solar flare, which had spun from the sun some 17 to 24 hours earlier, brushed against Earth’s magnetic field. The brush so bent Earth’s magnetic cocoon that the solar instruments’ needles were penned against the level of highest impact for several seconds. Dr. Hildner became wordless; there was silence. Just recently, NASA announced that that solar flare in November, 2003, wasn’t the usual maximum of an XClass-9, but a flare XClass-45.

The importance of an XClass-45 flare is that it’s reportedly the most powerful since scientists began recording solar flares around the year 1755. What’s fascinating enough to keep an eye on the sun is that, on top of the international political and religious absurdities played out, it appears the sun is moving from cycle 23 into cycle 24.

NASA’s panel of forecasters noted only days ago that cycle 24 is approaching or has begun, and the new cycle is predicted to be 35 to 50 percent stronger. You might think of the ‘energy ball rotating’ as a wild card. If the timing is just so, solar flares can exacerbate storms, volcanoes, earthquakes, ice ages, and generally interrupt Earthlings’ uses of electricity, thereby delaying or halting intercontinental contact.

One thing I want you and me to remember is the gargantuan waves of universal energies, over gargantuan periods of time, which escorted our energy source—the sun—into existence.

The sun is 4.5 billion years old, and its bond with Earth doesn’t exist in a vacuum. The sun is dependent on cyclic energy waves it receives from our Milky Way Galaxy. Pretend a dimmer switch controls those waves of energy which Sun then shares by rotating and radiating its nurturing light for the nature of Earth.

I recall back in 2003 or 2004, scientists couldn’t help but notice the sun hadn’t made its usual timely cyclic shift, so prompted by the sun’s tardiness, sun cycle 23 was extended. NASA’s panel of forecasters predicts the apex, or solar maximum of cycle 24 could occur between years 2011 and 2012.

With the forecast of a stronger Sun, it appears Earthlings, other life forms, and familiar landscapes could be impacted by solar energies and coronal mass ejections (solar flares) as Sun approaches its apex.

In the last 100 years, more observations about life have been compiled than the entire history of humankind.

For over 30 years now, assorted scientists have been theorizing extinctions of species including ours. Every so often, a die off of species occurs, and the most recent was 65 million years ago. Scientists now presume humans are presently at the mid point of our species evolution, and we haven’t the consciousness to imagine or acknowledge the possibilities.

We’ve been untrained to remember we were birthed out of Earth, and therefore distracted from our custodial duty associated with our species’ only known home. Some scientists have a working title for the next phase of Earth’s bond with Sun: ecozoic, a profound species’ environmental awareness radiating out of a relandscaped Earth.

This is tongue in cheek, but I have to ask, ‘Does Universe shudder at the environmental choices and divisive relations we Earthlings have permitted over millennia? Is there an unimaginable, undesigned cosmic plan being played out between Universe and our species’ choices?’

Yes. Yes. How could I imagine anything but a new cosmology for humankind to replace the dominant his-story extant for more than ten millennia? The replacement of the current matrix of illusions for living in the ‘moment to moment’ includes no secrets allowed. Conscious existence will likely perpetuate pain of change for a while—a confusion presumed unimaginable unless the replacement happens in a twinkling of an eye.

The energy ball rotating over our heads is the final ruler of Earthlings’ geographical habitats, and activities, intentions, sensibilities, and curiosities—we just forgot!

Our constant curiosity is key
to watching what’s being created.
